hint.pregnancy Females of child-bearing age can get pregnant after having sex, provided their fertility and their partner's fertility is high enough. Female's fertility fluctuates each month, in accordance with their biological rythms. Condoms and birth control can be used to reduce the chance of pregnancies.\n\nCharacter images will not always show someone as pregnant! as most images do not have a pregnant version. However, the small character box next to an image will indicate when someone is visibly pregnant. Preganancies last roughly 9 months at which point they will give birth.\n\nChildren born from completed pregnancies will not be represented in game! They will not get names nor will they be interactable with in any way. Even if you play the game for 18 years (which is likely not possible), these children will not appear in the game after they come of age. Raising children will cost money but not time to the parents.
hint.fertility Fertility applies to both men and women. The chance of someone getting pregnant during sex depends on the effective fertility of both parents. For men, this effective fertility is just their fertility attribute after adjusting for age (older men have lower fertility). For women, the effective fertility is their fertility attribute adjusted for age (older women have lower fertility, and those over 45 have no fertility) and time of the month. Fertility peaks during one day of them month and then goes down and back up. Each woman has it's own peak day. A fertility treatment will further increase someone's fertility (both men and women), but this is temporary and the effect is slowly lost over a year.

pregnancy.t Pregnancies
pregnancy.start.t A Worrisome Feeling...
pregnancy.start.b {0:P} haven't been feeling right lately and more importantly, {0:p} are late on {0:sp} period. {0:P} are starting to think {0:p} might be pregnant. So {0:p} head to the drugstore and pick up a few home pregnancy tests, which {0:p} then take. A few moments later, {0:p} got the results, and yes, {0:p} are pregnant. Congratulations!
pregnancy.should_abort.b If this is an unwanted child and {0:p} are not happy about being pregnant, {0:p} have the option to get an abortion. An abortion costs $%I1. Do {0:p} want to do that?
hint.pregnancy.abortion Getting an abortion costs money but happens instantanously. The mother loses some fertility and health as a result. Getting an abortion before telling the father results in the father never knowing about it.
pregnancy.father0.b However, {0:p} can't help but wonder how could this happen? {0:P} can't think of who can possibly be the father. {0:P} haven't had sex with anyone lately. It's a mystery and the poor child will grow never knowing who ^his or ^her father is.
pregnancy.father1.b {0:P} immediately think of {3:IN} who in {0:sp} mind is the only option to be the father of {0:sp} child.
pregnancy.father3.b {0:P} immediately think of who could be the father. {0:P} think it's more likely that {3:IN} is the father. But could also be {4:IN}.
pregnancy.father3.also.b But then {0:p} remember {0:p} also had sex with {5:IN}.
pregnancy.father4.b And there may have been more. {0:P} been quite the whore recently.
pregnancy.father3.cont.b Bottom line is {0:p} don't know who the father is.
pregnancy.father.opt.tell3 {0:P} should tell {3:N} {3:p} is going to be a father!
pregnancy.father.opt.tell4 {0:P} should tell {4:N} {4:p} is going to be a father!
pregnancy.father.opt.tell5 {0:P} should tell {5:N} {5:p} is going to be a father!
pregnancy.father.opt.no3 {0:P} won't tell {3:op} until {0:P} know for sure.
pregnancy.father.opt.no4 {0:P} won't tell anyone until {0:P}'m sure.

pregnancy.father.tell.t A Difficult Conversation
pregnancy.father.tell.start.b {0:P} decide that you need to tell {3:IN} that {3:p} is the father of {0:sp} unborn child.
pregnancy.father.tell.fgoto.b {0:P} contact {3:op} and find out where {3:p} is at and then head over there.
pregnancy.father.tell.mcome.b {0:P} contact {3:op} and ask {3:op} to come meet {0:p} at {0:sp} current location, which {3:p} agrees to do.
pregnancy.father.tell.fhome.b {0:P} contact {3:op} and ask {3:op} to meet {0:p} at home, which {3:p} agrees to do.
pregnancy.father.tell.gohome.b And {0:p} then head home.
pregnancy.father.hear.start.b {0:P} heard from {1:IN} that {1:p} needed to talk to {0:p}. It sounded important and {0:p} agreed to meet {1:op}.
pregnancy.father.hear.fcame.b It didn't take long for {1:op} to get here.
pregnancy.father.hear.mcame.b It didn't take long for {0:p} to get to {1:op}.
pregnancy.father.hear.it.b {1:N} approaches {0:p} and without much warning tells {0:p} {1:p} is pregnant and that {0:p} are the father.
pregnancy.father.hear.it.sure.b {0:P} started to say something but {1:p} added that {1:p} already ran some tests and they showed that {0:p} are the father.
pregnancy.father.hear.it.opt.ok Great! {0:P} am happy about this and will do whatever {1:p} wants {0:op} to.
pregnancy.father.hear.it.opt.proof Oops. {0:P} will take responsibility but {0:P} first want proof that {0:P} am the father.
pregnancy.father.hear.it.opt.no Oh no! {0:P} want no part of this. It's not {0:sp} problem.
pregnancy.father.hear.it.opt.abort {0:P} try to convince {1:N} to get an abortion which {0:P} will pay for.
pregnancy.father.should_abort.b Since {0:p} are not happy about this pregnancy situation with {1:N}, do {0:p} want to ask {1:op} to terminate the pregnancy?
pregnancy.father.tell.it.b {0:P} approach {1:N} and get right to the point. {0:P} tell {1:op} {0:p} are pregnant and that {1:p} is the father.
pregnancy.father.tell.it.ok.b {1:P} seemed genuinely happy about this and offered to help {0:p} in any way {1:p} could.
pregnancy.father.tell.it.no.b {1:P} didn't take the news well and wants no part of this.
pregnancy.father.tell.it.proof.b {1:P} wasn't thrilled with the news and is demanding proof that {1:p} is the father.
pregnancy.father.tell.it.abort.b {1:P} was not happy with the news and is asking {0:p} to terminate the pregnancy.
pregnancy.father.tell.it.test.b Which {0:p} then showed {1:op} the results of the paternity test {0:p} already did. {1:P} was upset about that and didn't believe it.
pregnancy.father.tell.it.opt.alone If {1:p} doesn't trust {0:op}, then {0:P} don't want {1:op} involved.
pregnancy.father.tell.it.opt.alone2 Fine, {0:P} don't need {1:op}.
pregnancy.father.tell.it.opt.alone3 Fine, {0:P} will take care of it {0:vp}.
pregnancy.father.tell.it.opt.alone4 No, won't do that. {0:P} will handle it on {0:sp} own.
pregnancy.father.tell.it.opt.abort {0:P} will terminate the pregnancy.
pregnancy.father.tell.it.opt.test OK, {0:P} will run a paternity test to make sure.
pregnancy.father.hear.alone.b {1:N} was not happy with {0:sp} reaction and told {0:p} {1:p} would go at it alone without {0:sp} help. {0:P} are not expected to have any further responsibility or involvement with this child. That must come as a relief to {0:p}.
pregnancy.father.hear.alone.true.b And {1:p} also added that {1:p} did had a paternity test done and it showed {0:p} are the father.
pregnancy.father.hear.test.b {1:N} somewhat understood {0:p} reaction and then offered to take a paternity test to make sure {0:p} are the father. {1:P} will get back to {0:p} with the results once they come in, which may take a few weeks.
pregnancy.father.hear.onlyone.b However, {1:p} says that {1:p} is sure {0:p} are the father cause {1:p} didn't have sex with anyone else recently so it has to be {0:p}. But for {0:sp} peace of mind, {1:p} will take the test.

pregnancy.father.delay.b {0:P} learned a while back that {0:p} were pregnant. But {0:p} were unsure on who the father was or were hesistant to tell {3:op}. Since then {0:p} ran some tests and now have determined that {3:IN} is the father.
pregnancy.father.other.b This could pose problems with {0:sp} current relationship with {4:IN}. How do you handle this?
pregnancy.father.other.opt.truth {0:P} tell both the truth and deal with the consequences.
pregnancy.father.other.opt.lie {0:P} lie and tell {4:N} that {4:p} is the father.
pregnancy.father.delay.opt.truth {0:P} tell {3:N} the news.
pregnancy.father.delay.opt.keep {0:P} don't reveal who the father is.
pregnancy.father.keep.b {0:P} should either tell {3:N} that {3:p} is the father or decide to raise the child on {0:sp} own without the father being involved or aware. Once {0:p} make this decision, it is final and {0:p} can't change {0:sp} mind afterwards.
pregnancy.father.test.t Paternity Test Results
pregnancy.father.test.b {0:P} you had told {3:IN} earlier that {3:p} is the father of {0:sp} child. {3:P} didn't believe {0:p} and wanted proof, so {0:p} had some tests done to determine the father.
pregnancy.father.test.is3.b Now the results are in and it says that {3:IN} is the father.
pregnancy.father.test.is4.b Now the results are in and it says that {4:IN} is the father.

pregnancy.father.test.not.b {3:p} says {0:p} were right. {3:P} told {0:p} the results of the paternity tests {3:p} had done showed that {0:p} are not the father.
pregnancy.father.test.learn.opt.ok As promised, {0:P} take responsibility and offer {0:sp} support.
pregnancy.father.test.not.opt.ok That's a relief!
pregnancy.father.test.ok.b {0:P} told {3:N} that {3:p} is the father of {0:sp} child and {3:p} reluctantly accepted the responsibility.

pregnancy.husband.t A Matter of Unfaithfulness

pregnancy.husband.learn.opt.conf {0:P} confront {1:N}.
pregnancy.husband.learn.opt.ign {0:P} let it be.
pregnancy.husband.conf.b {1:cIN} has learned about {0:sp} pregnancy and is a bit upset about it. {1:P} is now asking you directly about it and wants to know who is the father of {0:sp} child.
pregnancy.husband.conf.f.b {0:P} already told {3:IN} that {3:p} is the father.
pregnancy.husband.conf.opt.say {0:P} confirm that {3:N} is the father.
pregnancy.husband.conf.opt.father {0:P} tell {1:op} that {1:p} is the father.
pregnancy.husband.conf.opt.dont {0:P} tell {1:op} that I don't know who the father is.
pregnancy.husband.b After learning that {1:N} may have been unfaithful to you and gotten pregnant, {0:p} decided to ask {1:op} directly about it.
pregnancy.husband.say.b {1:P} struggled to answer but eventually said that {3:IN} was the father.
pregnancy.husband.father.b {1:P} said {0:p} are the father but then tried to explain why {1:p} didn't tell {0:p} earlier. {1:P} was worried {0:p} were not going to take it well.
pregnancy.husband.dont.b {1:P} said {1:p} doesn't know who the father is. But the tests kind of show that {0:p} are not it.
pregnancy.husband.father.opt.ok {0:P} say that {0:P}'m happy to hear that!
pregnancy.husband.father.opt.no {0:P} get upset about it.
pregnant.husband.told.b {0:P} told {1:N} that {1:p} was the father and
pregnant.husband.told.happy.b {0:p} was happy about it.
pregnant.husband.told.upset.b {0:p} was not happy about it.
pregnant.husband.dont.b {1:P} said that {1:p} isn't sure who is the father but doesn't think it's {0:p}.
pregnant.husband.say.b {1:P} said that {0:p} aren't the father and after a bit more prodding, finally admitted that {3:IN} is the father.
pregnancy.birth.t Labor Pains
pregnancy.birth.b The time came for {0:p} to have {0:sp} the baby. {0:P} started feeling the contractions, rushed to the hospital and yadda, yadda, yadda, {0:sp} child was born. It's a beautiful baby %1! Congratulations!
pregnancy.birth.f.b The time came for {1:IN} to have {1:sp} baby who is also {0:sp} child. {1:P} was rushed to the hospital and {0:p} followed and yadda, yadda, yadda, {0:sp} child was born. It's a beautiful baby %1! Congratulations!
pregnancy.birth.name.b What name do {0:p} want to give to this baby %1?
pregnancy.birth.name.l Name:
pregnancy.birth.b.b {0:P} received a note telling {0:p} that {3:IN} had {3:sp} baby. {3:P} will miss about two weeks of work while {3:p} recovers from childbirth.
pregnancy.birth.fpost.b {0:P} came for the birth of {1:sN} child and afterwards posted the news on social media. So everyone is now aware of this event.
pregnancy.birth.post.b Do {0:p} wish to post an announcement of the birth of {0:sp} child on social media?
pregnancy.birth.never.b Now, let's never speak of %1 again.
pregnancy.birth.never.opt.ok Babies always ruin TV shows, so this makes sense.
hint.pregnancy.birth.never The only impact babies will have in the game is that they will cost money to raise. The cost goes up as they get older. If a child has two involved parents, the cost is split evenly between both of them. If not, the mother is responsible for the full amount. Children will never become NPCs or have any additional role in the game, regardless of how long the game goes on for.

pregnancy.birth_control.mess.b and find {3:sp} bottle of birth control pills. Looks like {3:p} has a two month supply left. It would be wrong to do, but {0:p} can replace those pills with some other pills that look the same and {3:p} would never know the difference. Well, until {3:p} gets pregnant. Do {0:p} want to do that?
pregnancy.birth_control.mess.swap.b With access to {3:sN} birth control pills, {0:p} swapped {3:sp} them with some generic aspirin ones {0:p} that looked the same. It lowered {0:sp} honor, but that's going to be so funny when {3:p} gets pregnant!
pregnancy.birth_control.mess.no.b {0:P} came to {0:sp} senses and decided not to mess with {3:sN} birth control pills. However {0:p} did learn that {3:p} is using birth control.
pregnancy.birth_control.purse.b While on a date with {1:N}, {1:p} got a call that appeared important and excused {1:vp} indicating {1:p} had to take it. For privacy, {1:p} stepped away from {0:p} a bit and even turned around so {0:p} couldn't see {1:sp} lips but that means {1:p} can't see {0:p} either. {1:P} left {1:sp} purse behind, giving {0:p} an opportunity to rummage thru it and maybe learn a thing or two about {1:op}. Do you want to do that?
hint.date.birth_control Searching someone's purse without their permission will lower your honor, but you might learn a thing or two about them. You will also be able to mess with their birth control pills, if they are using birth control.
pregnancy.birth_control.purse.no.b {0:P} left the pills alone, but kept looking thru {3:sp} purse and may have learned something about {3:op}.
pregnancy.birth_control.purse.back.b Out of the corner of {0:sp} eye {0:p} see that {1:N} is done with {1:sp} call and headed back.

hint.birth_control Birth control is not 100% effective, more like 98%. It's only necessary for women who are fertile, so those older than 45 years old do not need to worry about it. Birth control works immediately, once you start taking it, its full effects are on and once you stop the effects disappear. Birth control is not free and you will incur a charge when you start using it and as well as a recurring charge each month while you are using it.
hint.ask_birth_control When you ask someone if they are using birth control, they will not always tell the truth. They will lie when they have low honor. They also may refuse to tell you if they don't feel like sharing that.
hint.mess_birth_control When you mess with someone's birth control, you are replacing their real birth control pills with fake ones. This will eliminate any birth control effects the victim has and will increase ^her chances of getting pregnant (but not guarantee it). The effects are immediate. There are no consequences for doing this as they will never know who did it.

fert.treat.pay.b {1:cIN} approaches {0:p} and explains how {1:p} is trying to have a child but {1:sp} fertility is too low. {1:P} says it's currently at %I1 but {1:p} wants it to be higher to increase {1:op} chance to conceive.
fert.treat.pay.cost.b {1:P} looked into fertility treatments but they are so expensive and {1:p} really can't afford them. So {1:p} is asking {0:p} to pay for it. {1:P} would be very grateful if {0:p} do. The cost would be $%I1. What do {0:p} say?
fert.treat.pay.asked.b {0:P} asked {1:IN} to pay for {0:sp} fertility treatments and
fert.treat.pay.asked.yes.b {1:p} said yes.
fert.treat.pay.asked.no.b {1:p} said no.
fert.treat.start.b {0:P} walk up to the {1:?job_pos} and ask for help. {0:P} explain that {0:p} are looking for a treatment to improve {0:p} fertility.
fert.treat.start2.b starts asking some questions and then checks {0:sp} vitals. Then {1:p} runs a test to determine {0:sp} fertility. It comes out at %I1.
fert.treat.toolow.b Which either due to age or some other condition is too low and unfortunately there's no treatment that will make {0:p} fertile. Sorry.
fert.treat.toohigh.b Which is high enough that treatment would not have much, if any, effect on it. {0:P} are as fertile as they come. Congratulations!
fert.treat.cost.b {1:N} explains how {0:p} can benefit from these treatment and lets {0:p} know that it will cost $%I1 and will last for roughly one year. However, the effect decreases as time passes, losing half its impact in six months. The process is painless and immediate. Do {0:p} want to do it?
fert.treat.doit.b After a few minutes of prep, {1:N} inserts a needle into your abdomen with the proper hormones and drugs that would improve {0:sp} fertility. It hurt a bit, but not as much as {0:p} expected.
fert.treat.doit2.b Afterwards {1:p} indicated that {0:p} can expect your fertility to go up around %I1 points. But again, expect this value to slowly decrease back to it's original level over the next year.
hint.fert_treat When asked to pay for a girlfriend or employee's fertility treatment, you can accept or refuse. If you accept they will go thru with the process, raising their fertility temporarily and improving their opinion of you. If you decline to help they will become a bit more unhappy and they may or may not receive the treatment.

preg.talk.share.a.b warmly for {0:sp} thoughts.
preg.talk.share.no_father.a.b {1:P} then shared how happy {1:p} is and can't wait for the child to be born. Although {1:p} admits that it's a bit scary to be doing this by {1:vp} with no father in the picture.
preg.talk.share.father.a.b {1:P} then shared how happy {1:p} and the father, {3:IN}, are and can't wait for the child to be born.

hint.preg.talk You can use this interaction to learn more about someone's pregnancy, particularly who is the father. Unless ^her opinion of you is low, ^she will be happy to share the details with you. Offering help can improve ^her opinion of you, but you may have to do something for ^her. In some cases you can ask ^her to consider having an abortion (but it will likely be hard to get ^her to agree and may upset ^her).

preg.talk.abort.conf.a.b Are {0:p} sure {0:p} want to ask {1:N} to have an abortion? This can upset {1:op} and lower {1:sp} opinion of {0:p}.
preg.talk.abort.conf.a.opt.sug Not yet. For now {0:P} will just start putting some doubts in {1:sp} head.
preg.talk.abort.conf.sug.a.b {0:P} talked with {1:N} for a bit, laying down the groundwork for eventually asking {1:op} to terminate {1:sp} pregnancy. It was subtle and {0:p} didn't reveal {0:sp} ulterior motive, but it made {1:op} a bit less sure about keeping the baby.
preg.talk.abort.asked.t.b {0:P} and {1:N} were having a pleasant conversation about {0:sp} pregnancy when {1:p} started to talk about the benefits of {0:p} terminating the pregnancy. {0:P} made some good points {0:p} and {0:p} allowed {0:op} to finish. Getting an abortion costs $%D1.

preg.talk.abort.asked.no.a.b but {1:p} refused. {1:P} got pretty upset with {0:p} for even asking.
preg.talk.abort.asked.nook.a.b but {1:p} refused. But at least {1:p} didn't get upset with {0:p}.
preg.talk.abort.asked.pay.a.b and {1:p} accepted, as long as {0:p} pay for it. It will cost around $%I1. Do {0:p} want to pay for it?
preg.talk.abort.asked.pay.t.b After {1:N} asked {0:p} to have an abortion and {0:p} accepted as long as {1:p} paid for it, {1:p} then turned around and said that {1:p} wasn't going to do it.
preg.talk.abort.asked.yes.a.b {1:N} accepted and left to get an abortion.
hint.preg.talk.abort You can ask any pregnant woman to have an abortion up to the point ^she is 50% thru their pregnancy. If you do ask, and ^she says no, you may not ask again for at least 2 weeks. So you have very limited opportinities to do this. Asking a pregnant woman to have an abortion will probably cause ^her to like you significantly less, even if ^she agrees to have it. If ^she agrees, ^she may request that you pay for it as a condition. You can also just attempt to lay the groundwork for asking in the future. This will make ^her more likely to accept when you do ask. You can only do this once a day.
